Now Sky sports

I'm looking to watch sky sports but only for a month to watch the remainder of the football season. I have a Now Stick and I'm looking at offers on my account and ones I'm emailed. I'm just a bit confused as they seem to indicate you can cancel any time but then give the impression you are signing up for 6 months minimum. Has anyone here tried to get a months sport on Now? Does it cover all channels n do I have to take on a long contract? Thanks for any advice

    There was a recent thread that asked virtually the same question ( I will try to find it ).

    IIRC the conclusion was that you can't take a year contract, watch one sports event, and then cancel. Once activated the cooling off period ends.

    EDIT - I found the recent thread:

    Day plan £14.99 😶‍🌫️

    Cheaper to go to pub & nurse a small drink 🤣

    Sees the days of cheap viewing are long gone.

    FAQ

    With a Fully Flexible Sports Month Membership, you can cancel at anytime. You’ll still be able to stream until the end of that 30 day viewing period. If you don’t cancel, your Fully Flexible Sports Month Membership renews automatically at the end of the 30 day period.

    With a 6-Month Saver Sports Membership, cancel anytime is effective at the end of the minimum term. You'll still be able to stream until the end of the 6-month viewing period. If you don't cancel, your membership auto-renews as a Fully Flexible Sports Month Membership at the end of the minimum term period at £34.99.

    Your Sports Day Membership last for 24 hours. There’s no need to cancel – your membership will end after 24 hours from when you start streaming.

    Life in the slow lane

    Than you both for the help. The Flexi one month option sounds like the right one for me. I'm looking mainly at Scottish Premier games which I'm assuming are included. I think there are 6 games listed to be live so I think about a fiver a game seems reasonable

    Not my game but are not a bunch of Scottish Premiership games also on Premier Sports?
